Trade my 4x4 for a G63
Ain't no more free Lil Steve
I gave 'em chance and chance
and chance again
I even done told them please
I find it crazy the police'll
shoot you and
know that you dead
But still tell you to freeze
****** up I seen what I seen
I guess that mean
Hold him down if he say he
can't breathe
It's too many mothers
that's grievin'
They killin' us for no reason
Been goin' on for too long
to get even
Throw us in cages like
dogs and hyenas
I went to court
And they sent me to prison
My mama was crushed
when they said I can't leave
First I was drunk
Then I sobered up quick
When I heard all that time
that they gave to Taleeb
He got a life sentence plus
We just some products of
our environment
How the **** they gon' blame us
You can't fight fire with fire
I know
But at least we can
turn up the flames some
Every colored person
ain't dumb
And all whites not racist
I be judgin' by the mind
and heart
I ain't really into faces
****** up
The way that we livin' is
not gettin' better
You gotta know how to survive
Crazy I had to tell all of my
loved ones to
carry a gun when they
goin' outside
Stare in the mirror
whenever you drive
Overprotective
Go crazy for mine
You gotta pay attention
to the signs
Seem like the blind
followin' the blind
Thinkin' 'bout everything
that's goin' on
I boost security up
at my home
I'm with my kind
If they right or they wrong
I call him now
He'll pick up the phone
And it's five in the morning
He wakin' up on it
Tell 'em wherever I'm at
Then they comin'
I see blue lights
I get scared and start runnin'
That **** be crazy
They 'posed to protect us
Throw us in handcuffs
And arrest us
While they go home at night
That **** messed up
Knowin' we needed help
They neglect us
Wonderin' who gon' make
them respect us
I can see in your eye
that you fed up
**** around got my shot
I won't let up
They know that we a
problem together
They know that we can
storm any weather
It's bigger than black and white
It's a problem with the
whole way of life
It can't change overnight
But we gotta start somewhere
Might as well gon' 'head
start here
We done had a **** of a year
I'ma make it count
while I'm here
God is the only man I fear
**** it
I'm goin' on the front line
He gon' bust your *** if you
come past that gun line
You know when the storm
go away then the sun shine
You gotta put your head in the
game when it's crunch time
I want all my sons to grow up
to be monsters
I want all my daughters to
show out in public
Seems like we losin' our
country but we gotta
stand up for somethin'
So this what it comes to
Every video I see on
my conscience
I got power
Now I gotta say somethin'
Corrupted police been the
problem where I'm from
But I'd be lyin' if I said
it was all of them
I ain't do this for the trend
I don't follow them
Altercations with the law
Had a lot of them
People speakin' for the people
I'm proud of them
Stick together
We can get it up out of them
I can't lie like I don't rap
about killin' and dope
But I'm tellin' my youngins
to vote
I did what I did 'cause I didn't
have no choice or no hope
I was forced to just
jump in and go
This bull*** is all that we know
But it's time for a change
Got time to be serious
No time for no games
We ain't takin' no more
Let us go from them chains
God bless they souls
Every one of them names
It's bigger than black and white
It's a problem with the
whole way of life
It can't change overnight
But we gotta start somewhere
Might as well gon' 'head
start here
We done had a **** of a year
I'ma make it count
while I'm here
God is the only man I fear
They trainin' officers to kill us
Then shootin' protestors with
these rubber bullets
They regular people
I know that they feel it
These scars too deep
to heal us
What happened to COVID
Nobody remember
It ain't makin' sense
I'm just here to vent
It happen to one of your people
It's different
We get it the system is wicked
Just learn how to pick it
Knowledge is power
I swear I'm a witness
I know that I'm gifted
I won't go too deep
'Cause I'm scared they'll get me
Ain't scared to admit it
Some **** I can't mention
It's people who can
Well here's the chance
I won't take the stand but I'll
take a stand for what I believe
Must not be breathin' the
air that I breathe
You know that the way that
I bleed you can bleed
I never been a fan of police
But my neighborhood know
I try to keep peace
So it's only right that
I get in the streets
March for a reason
Not just on GP
Our people died for us
to be free
**** do you mean
This was a dream
Now we got the power
that we need to have
They don't want us with it
And that's why they mad yeah
It's bigger than black and white
It's a problem with the
whole way of life
It can't change overnight
But we gotta start somewhere
Might as well gon' 'head
start here
We done had a **** of a year
I'ma make it count
while I'm here
God is the only man I fear
It's bigger than black and white
It's a problem with the
whole way of life
It can't change overnight
But we gotta start somewhere
Might as well gon' 'head
start here
We done had a **** of a year
I'ma make it count
while I'm here
God is the only man I fear
